The Eiffel Tower, closed earlier this week due to strike action, has now re-opened.
Workers at the famous Paris landmark held a two-day walk-out in protest over pay and conditions.
It meant thousands of tourists had to miss out on a chance to climb the monument, which welcomes around 30,000 visitors on an average day.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the workers’ union CGT explained why they were taking the action.
"The waiting lines are growing longer, the visitors are growing more and more impatient and the work conditions are deteriorating," it said.
Workers also complained that they have been put under more pressure because one of the five lifts due to have been renovated was still not ready.
The work was supposed to have been completed in two years, but after five years it still isn’t open, and the cost of the renovation has more than doubled.
